The latest advices warrant the conclu-
sion this journal reached few days ago,
that in the matter of the Afghan frontier
dispute England has "eaten dirt" A
Berlin dispatch says that the adjustment
of the Kojah Safeh matter created no
alarm there, as it is inimical to Afghan
istan. That is to say, England comedies
that when the Russo English Afghan
Boundary Commission wrote that the new
frontier was to begin at Kojah Saleh on
the Oxus, it was thereby meant that Rus
STA could extend the Turcoman frontier to
the southern line of the Kojah Saleh dis
trict instead Of the town and ferry of K oiah
Saleh. This will strip from Afghanistan
slice of country about thirteen miles in
width at the eastern end, and declining to
nothing at the western, some eighty miles
distant But it means step nearer to
Herat on the part of Russia. Five years
ago such a concession would have been
impossible; to-day England humiliates
herself before the Gar, and abandons her
compact with the Ameer she herself placed
upon the royal cushions TO serve her pur-
pose.

IHE San Francisco Cal has very point
eddy and justly called attention TO the
strange position of the San Francisco
Caronleie. That erratic sheet, claiming to
be an exponent of public opinion. and
drawing Its support from the producers

system of transportation laws that mean

A PUBLIC lecturer in San Francisco last
week asserted that there are over 5000
opium smokers in San Francisco alone
and that the vice of the opium "habit" is
rapidly growing. Yet it 1868 there was
but one, and in 1871 but two opium smok-
ers in the metropolis. The speaker is a
medical scientist who has investigated the
question. He AYERS that his estimate OF
the number of smokers is low, and that
other experts give nearly twice as large !,
figure. The laws we have against the vice
are of little account, and their enforce
ment a matter of great difficulty. Society
will presently be called upon to take vigor-
Gus action for the suppression of the evil,
and to burden itself with taxation for the
care of the unhappy victims of the
habit" 1t would seem that the evil is
already sufficiently widespread to awaken
the concern of philanthropists and those
who labor in the interests of retaining
fallen humanity and the prevention of
personal degradation by appetite.

Los ANGELES APPEALS FOR RELIEF FROM
THE INTERSTATE COMMERCE BILL.-The Lo.
Angeles Board of Trade have unanimously
adopted the following:
WHEREAS, A strict Interpretation of the
interstate commerce bill will in the opin.
ion of the Board of Trade, work a great
and irreparable injury to the business in.
teresis of not only Los Angeles CITY and
county. but of our entire State, be it
ResolUed, That this Board, representing
as it does the entire mercantile interests Of
this city, herewith respectfully asks of the
honorable Board of Interstate Commerce
Commissioners the temporary suspension
of Section 4
ReSOleed, That the following telegram
signed by the President and Secretary. be
sent to the Commission immediately
" Our Embarrassing and wine crops are ma.
turing, and our manufacturers. packer:
and shippers are holding back, not daring
to contract for raw products, as the in.
creased freight rates under the interstate
law is from $500 to $500 per car. Our STATE
is threatened with disaster unless some re-
lief comes, protecting US against the present
Interpretation of the fourth section of the
bill, which we ask your body to suspend
until the people can be heard from"

On Saturday we spoke of the presence
of Colonel Waring in the State, of his emil
nence as sanitary engineer and his prom
lnence in sewerage engineering, and sug-
gested that he should be asked to visit
some of the northern cities and give his
advice as to the proper system of sewerage
that ought to be looked forward to as i'm
perative, whatever the present ability to
perform may be. Since then the Mayor
of San Francisco has invited Colonel War
ing to visit that city and give his opinion
concerning sewerage there, and he is, it
is understood, willing to do so. 1t ought
to be possible to secure his views also con-
corning the system Sacramento must some
day adopt, for the abandonment of what
she now has, it is admitted, will be neces-
sary with much more growth of the city
Colonel Waring is under employment Just
now by San Diego to lay out sewerage
plan for that place. A wiser step than the
resolution to adopt and build system
now, whlie the place Is young, no city ever
took. 1t would pay to expend little
meney to secure for ourselves the advice of
the man who planned the improved Paris
ian system, for Paris came to America for
an engineer for the purpose. 1t ispossible
that the eminent sanitarian would visit
the Capital City to look over the ground
for us without much expense to the mu-
nicipality. At any rate, man of such
broad experience, and who has had to do
practically with all the best sewerage sys-
TENS established in the last twenty years,
being near to us, ought to be asked what
he thinks we may and can do in improv-
ing our system.

The coarse but vigorous response of
Healy in the Commons indicates that the
English Legislators are copying after the
American article. Healy's coarse reply,
and which in this country would mean
fight, is exeusable only by the equally vile
attack made from the Government benches
upon the anti-eoercionists. When Sander
son declared that such men as Gladstone,
Trevelyan and Parnell were consorting
with murderers and cutthroats, thieves and
outlaws in their opposition to the Tory
coercion bill, he invited precisely the reply
that was given. True or false, any politi-
cal leader so assailed in a legislative body,
would have been less than man not to have
returned shot for shot.

md the decisions Of which are subject at
any time to reversal or modification. There
is no reason to believe the Interstate Com
mission otherwise than sincere and de-
voted to the best interests of the country
its action thus far has given warrant for
the repose OF confidence in it. But we re-
peat, the growth of California will be
checked 50 long as the export of its pro-
ducts is dependent upon the decision ofany
tribunal invested with the power the Com
mission has. As the Call makes clear, our
producers must trust to an outside
market; our State is not yet SO populated
as to warrant manufacture of a large class
of goods now procurable only of Eastern
manufacturers. But the interstate COM
merce law practically prohibits the output
of one and the income of the other; wool,
wine, fruit and all kinds of canned goods
must cease to move out by rail under the
law. Yet the Chroaicle, with a perverse-
ness that is simply amazing, insists that
the law is a good thing for California, will
develop manufacturing and build up San
Francisco by securing to her the interior
trade, which has heretofore, to great de-
gree, been independent Of the metropolis.
In the face of this strange reasoning, the
bankers, merchants, Board of Trade and
investors of San Francisco, and producers
of the State generally, have sent forward
statements declaring that the operation OF
the new law will work irreparable injury
to California and all her best interests.
The consolation is, as the Call shows, that
the Cironicte does not represent the public
thought here is not received as such by
our people, however much it may be looked
upon abroad as an exponent of public
opinion.
